HDMI Output - No Sound

[Guest wasps]

Hi,

I have a Vega running mcR8.

If I connect it to my tv using HDMI, i can see the picture, but the sound is still only played via the tablet.

Should the sound automatically be transferred to the tv when I connect the HDMI cable?

Are there any settings on the Vega to control the sound output? (I couldn't see anything in Settings --> Sound)

I'm happy that the HDMI cable is fine as I've tested it against my DVD player.

Any help is very appreciated.

thank you

I just plugged mine into the HDMI and I get sound through it. I've not changed any settings.

I've just applied Corvus5, and tried connecting to the tv again.

Still no sound.

At the moment, I can't decide if it's the tv, or a hardware problem with the tablet.

Is it likely to be a Vega hardware issue if I can see the video on the tv just fine, but no sound?

Should all sound be transferred to the tv, or should I be able to hear audio from both the tv and the tablet?

Sound transfers to the headphone socket just fine.... it's only when using HDMI that i have a problem.

Try turning TV off/on that sometimes clears the problem otherwise try another HDMI cable as the design of Vega means that fat HDMI cables don't always push all the way in correctly. :P

Hi, if I conect my vega with the hdmi cable that came with the sky box I get no sound through the tv just the tablet, even though it works perfectly with the sky box. So I have to use the cheapo one I bought for the xbox and that works perfectly with the vega.

My money is on your cable.

HDMI connections are a bit strange. I have 2 tvs; on one of them my hdmi cable works fine, with full sound. The 2nd tv doesn't get sound even using the same cable as on the other tv.

I suggest playing around a bit. You'll probably find a solution.

Have/had issues with my tv. An old Samsung 50" Plasma. The screen would have green flashes in the black regions of the picture, and videos/etc stutter. TV works fine on an Asus UL30, Dell XPS M1530 and XBox 360 so I doubt its a fault with the tv.

Oddly enough, Vega worked fine on an LG monitor (with sound) and Iiyama monitor via HDMI->DVI (no sound).

Once my Vega's back from repair I'll try it out again and see if it still gives the same issues.
